block: fix an integer overflow in logical block size

2020-01-23T07:19:38+00:00

commit ad6bf88a6c19a39fb3b0045d78ea880325dfcf15 upstream.

Logical block size has type unsigned short. That means that it can be at
most 32768. However, there are architectures that can run with 64k pages
(for example arm64) and on these architectures, it may be possible to
create block devices with 64k block size.

For exmaple (run this on an architecture with 64k pages):

Mount will fail with this error because it tries to read the superblock using 2-sector
access:
  device-mapper: writecache: I/O is not aligned, sector 2, size 1024, block size 65536
  EXT4-fs (dm-0): unable to read superblock

This patch changes the logical block size from unsigned short to unsigned
int to avoid the overflow.

block: rename bio bi_rw to bi_opf

2016-08-07T20:41:02+00:00

Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.

No intended functional changes in this commit.

block, drivers, fs: rename REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH

2016-06-07T19:41:38+00:00

To avoid confusion between REQ_OP_FLUSH, which is handled by
request_fn drivers, and upper layers requesting the block layer
perform a flush sequence along with possibly a WRITE, this patch
renames REQ_FLUSH to REQ_PREFLUSH.

md: use bio op accessors

2016-06-07T19:41:38+00:00

Separate the op from the rq_flag_bits and have md
set/get the bio using bio_set_op_attrs/bio_op.

md/raid0: remove empty line printk from dump_zones

2016-04-25T15:43:58+00:00

Remove the final printk. All preceding output is already properly
newline-terminated and the printk isn't even KERN_CONT to begin with,
so it only adds one empty line to the log.

md/raid0: fix uninitialized variable bug

2016-04-14T16:57:59+00:00

If this function fails the callers expect that *private_conf is set to
an ERR_PTR() but that isn't true for the first error path where we can't
allocate "conf".  It leads to some uninitialized variable bugs.

md/raid0: apply base queue limits before disk_stack_limits

2015-10-02T07:23:44+00:00

Calling e.g. blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() after calls to
disk_stack_limits() discards the settings determined by
disk_stack_limits().
So we need to make those calls first.

block: kill merge_bvec_fn() completely

2015-08-13T18:31:57+00:00

As generic_make_request() is now able to handle arbitrarily sized bios,
it's no longer necessary for each individual block driver to define its
own ->merge_bvec_fn() callback. Remove every invocation completely.
